Summary
Kasım Yildirim is an Associate Professor at Università di Trento with 11 years of research and academic experience developing hardware and software for resource- and energy-constrained networked embedded systems. His work spans intermittent and transiently-powered computing, backscatter and computational RFID networking, TinyML and edge inference, and distributed algorithms for self-organizing sensor networks. He combines deep systems-level expertise (operating systems, runtimes, wireless protocols) with hands-on hardware exploration, having transitioned from industry embedded software roles to sustained academic leadership. Kasım holds a PhD from Ege University, has held postdoctoral appointments in the Netherlands and Italy, and earned national habilitation in Italy and Turkey—an indicator of his recognized cross-border academic impact. A practical tinkerer as much as a theoretician, he focuses on turning intermittent power constraints into opportunities for ultra-low-power edge intelligence.
